LOL, yep, done it. Had two pieces of 3/4 pvc pipe and 3 pieces of trim board that were each 10 ft'ers, so throught the window, angled to the pass side, then left about 4 ft out the tailgate and strapped down. Ya gotta do what ya gotta do sometimes. I didnt have the full size pick up that morning

Guilty, but in my defense they were 16" pieces.

If you have a soft top, there is a nice plastic threshold to rest things on once you remove the rear window.

I do this with my fishing poles quite often. If I'm running into Wally world to grab bait I'm not trying to leave them in the bed of the truck, so I'll throw them in and lay them from dash to window. So far I still have all my fishing poles lol

Not me this time.

Many years ago, I stopped at Lowe's after work in my wife's 1990 Subaru Justy. I drew a crowd as I loaded 9 - 8' 2X4's into it and closed the hatch. They went from the passenger floorboard to the hatch but everything closed. And no, 10 would not have fit.

Iā€™ve done that hundreds of time in my F-350. Makes carrying some 16 ft trim very easy. Havenā€™t needed to do that since Iā€™ve retired.

I've had a 20' ladder out of my bed ratchet strapped in with the tailgate in the half open position. Had to be very mindful of anything other than driving in a straight line...

This meme is about as old as the JT platform itself. Typical "let me criticize what others do with their money" bullshit.

I see/saw the short comings of a 5 foot bed so ii invested in a trailer built from a 8 foot ford truck bed. I am refurbishing it as it was sitting in the back 40 for about 10-12 years. The hardest part was nocking down and filling in the "Ford" letters on the tailgate. It should be done in about 3-4 weeks. This should take care of just about all of my hauling needs.

Iā€™m kind of in the same boat. My neighbor has his own taco cart gig and heā€™s got a 5x8 trailer that works very nicely when I need to borrow it from time to time. Good luck with your trailer build

You're saying that driving with the rear window slid open will stress and break the glass? Just want to make sure I'm understanding correctly. Thanks
That's exactly what it means...don't ask me how I know.
